Developed for the final defense of the Zeus’ Thunderbolt, the Dicitus were a pair of custom mobile suits designed for the twin Presidents of Jupiter, Callisto. Despite the differing names, the two machines (Iuridus Sinistra Dicitus and Libertas Dextra Dicitus) were effectively identical. Like the Cornigs, the Dicitus were next generation mobile suits whose abilities far exceeded those of any mobile suit currently being developed within the Earth Sphere. Their mobile suit forms boasted high mobility to challenge any enemy, while their monstrous mobile armor forms could concentrate the I-field generated by their limbs. The ultimate intent was to produce a pair of machines that the enemy could never even touch. However, in a way the Dicitus’ extreme speed and mobility could be seen as their fatal flaw. In development, it was discovered that the I-field didn’t cover the Dicitus’ backs; the Callisto twins brushed this off as unimportant, assuming that no mobile suit would ever be able to get around behind them.
